Bhubhaneshwar Development Authority - 7,000 housing units coming up this year

Per this Indian Express article - link below - the Bhubhaneshwar Development Authority ("BDA") plans to build 7,000 homes this year of which 5,000 units will be built for EWS / LIG / MIG families - and after the first year, the BDA is planning to add about 5,000 low cost housing units every year. A BDA official said the purpose of the proposal, like all other affordable housing projects, is to make low cost housing available for the urban poor.  

It seems that the housing units will comprise G+4 multi-storey buildings and the BDA would like to cap the price of the lowest housing unit at Rs 5 lakh.

Of course, these will be approved projects for MHFC and we will finance successful allottees who require a loan and are from our segment (financially excluded lower income families) subject to terms and conditions.

For more details on loans available, please call our Head Office in Mumbai on 022-22660427 or email us on contact@mhfcindia.com.

How to Prepare Yourself for a Home Loan

Link to an article in NDTV (from BankBazaar.com) on preparing for a home loan - very true and lots of good advice (except that in MHFC's case, we dont require formal documents to prove incomes - since our focus is mainly on the informal sector who are financially excluded precisely because of this).
